28th January 2009 | Other items by Nkateko |
“Kwatsityw’iziko” means crossing the hearth and refers, most literally, to sex. In Xhosa culture, as in many European traditions, married couples sleep in separate beds. To initiate intimacy, one has to cross the centre of the room, where one would traditionally find the hearth. If Izele spoke of birth this show speaks of what happens before the birth, what causes the birth. |
